Answer: 72 gallons
Step-by-step explanation: I added 5 and 3 then multiplied by 9.
All you have to do is multiply your number and then add them together !!
This system can be a bit tricky unless you write it out:
(2n + 2)(2n - 2) ~ First you have to take one variable and multiply it to each of the other two variables, like:
2n * 2n ~ And:
2n * -2 ~ This gives you:
4n^2 - 4n
Now we do this with the other:
2 * 2n
2 * -2
4n - 4
Now we combine them both while adding like terms:
4n^2 - 4
Therefore your answer is: A. 4n^2 - 4
(This is due to how when having the positive 4n subtracted by the negative it cancels it out. Leaving us with the remaining two terms left.)
I hope this helps, have a great rest of your day! ^ ^
